Moved to mainspace by Bruxton (talk). Self-nominated at 23:46, 24 July 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Alexander Armatas; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

New enough, long enough, well cited including hooks, QPQ complete. Strongly prefer ALT0. I do think that a more on-topic image might be better though, the video appeared behind this window when I tried to play it. Maury Markowitz (talk) 18:25, 28 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Lede phrasing

"... is a naval aviator in the United States Navy"

Does the U.S. Navy have any non-naval aviators? If not, I submit that this sentence is a little redundant. Daniel Case (talk) 01:51, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
